Ferrari has struggled for performance this year, and former F1 driver Derek Daly does not believe its drivers are doing it any favours.
Former F1 driver Derek Daly does not think Ferrari benefits from its current driver line-up as Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc have similar driving styles. Ferrari signed Hamilton from Mercedes to join Leclerc in the hopes of challenging for the title after narrowly missing out on the constructors’ championship last season. Yet, Ferrari has not won a race this year, and Hamilton has not even reached the podium in the 18 grands prix held so far. Daly believes that having two drivers with different skills is crucial for a team’s success, with one being an instant reflex driver and the other being more feel-sensitive. According to Daly, with both Ferrari drivers being instant reflex drivers, he doubts they can provide the necessary feedback for the team to develop faster cars in the future.
